Kavalan Triple Sherry Cask Single Malt Whiskey is an extraordinary blend of three sherry casks: oloroso, pedro ximénez and moscatel, revealing the dried fruits of oloroso. The richness of the caramel and the creaminess of the malt combine with tropical fruits to shape a refined and exquisite sherry whisky.

The Kavalan distillery has its own cooperage, which allows it to fully control the crucial stage of aging. On the wise advice of Jim Swan, aging in STR (shaved-toasted-recharred) barrels plays an important role, allowing its single malt to reach full maturity more quickly. This version echoes Brandy Cask # A090620014 from the Créations Cellar Book catalog, sharing with it a...
